WHAT’S IN A NAME?
The official school name is the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga which is the proper usage in first reference to the athletics program. The appropriate short form
is simply Chattanooga with the abbreviated form of UTC. “Chatt” is acceptable as a leaderboard moniker. There is no hyphenated form of the school name (i.e. UTChattanooga, Tennessee-Chattanooga, Tenn.-Chatt., UT Chattanooga, etc.). The nickname is simply Mocs. For more information and current athletic marks, turn to page 14.

NO. 1 IN THE NATION
The Chattanooga Mocs men’s golf team has twice been ranked No. 1 in the nation by Golfstat. Both occurences came in fall rankings in 2008 and 2009. In both cases, the
Mocs started strong at the Carpet Capital Collegiate Classic with a win in 2008 and runner-up in 2009.

FORMER MOCS IN PROFESSIONAL GOLF
Among the numerous golfing alums of the University, there are several in the world of professional golf. Jonathan Hodge
(‘10) earned his Web.com Tour card in December 2012 at PGA Tour Q School. Stephan Jaeger (‘12) also reached the final
stage of Q School and has Web.com Tour status for 2013. Jaeger and recent grads Bryce Ledford (‘07), Derek Rende (‘10)
and Tripp Harris (‘10) are also working their way up through the myriad of tours (e.g. NGA/Hooters, eGolf, Canadian, etc.).
Kip Henley (‘82) was the winner of the Golf Channel’s Big Break II and recently caddied for PGA Tour pro Brian Gay.

IN THE MEDIA
CAREER PREPARATION

The Chattanooga Mocs athletics programs enjoy unparalleled
media exposure. Located in a metropolitan area that includes
more than 500,000 people, the Mocs are covered by the
Chattanooga Times Free Press and the local contingent of
television stations, including ABC, CBS and NBC affiliates,
as well as three local sports talk programs and two online
publications.

Davis Bunn (above) and Mark Guhne (right) talk with the local newspaper, radio and television
stations that cover the Mocs. UTC golf receives coverage from all three major network affiliates
and also has a dedicated beat writer, David Uchiyama, from the area’s daily paper, the
Chattanooga Times Free Press. Add in two local online publications - Chattanoogan.com and
Nooga.com - and the Mocs are as well covered as any team in the nation.
In addition, GoMocs.com is one of the premier collegiate websites in the country. In-depth
bios, tournament previews and reviews are available along with select video interviews. The
Chattanooga Mocs are easy to follow on Facebook (facebook.com/ChattanoogaMocs) and Twitter
(@GoMocsMGLF & @GoMocs).

The Chattanooga Mocs Sports Medicine Program provides prevention, care, and
rehabilitation services for all student-athletes. UTC has two athletic training rooms that
serve all athletic teams. Thanks to funding from Erlanger Hospital, the athletic training
rooms are equipped with the most up-to-date rehabilitation equipment including a
Biodex Isokinetic Unit, a Neurocom for balance testing and training, and a Trazer unit for
functional rehabilitation. In addition, the Chattanooga Group, Inc., provides therapeutic
modalities for use as both rehabilitation equipment and instructional devices for
students enrolled in the Graduate Athletic Training Program.
The Graduate Athletic Training Program at UTC plays a major role in providing

WHAT’S A MOC?
NICKNAME & MARKS

THE ANSWER

WHY MOCS?

For more than a decade, this question has puzzled many fans and observers of
Chattanooga Athletics.
The UTC Athletics Department changed logos in 1997, moving away from Native
American imagery to a package of logos using railroad images, the nickname “Mocs” and
the Scrappy mascot. The new package emphasized UTC’s connection to Chattanooga and
the city’s railroad heritage and incorporated the Tennessee state bird.
The term “Moc” is short for “Mockingbird.” Mockingbirds are fiercely territorial
creatures which protect their homes with courage, determination and skill. Those attributes
reflect the intellect, spirit and character of UTC student-athletes and alumni. A Moc is a
champion on the playing surface, in the classroom and, most importantly, in life.

Faced with politically sensitive issues and in need of a stronger core identity
to help establish a strong brand as Chattanooga’s Team, the athletics department
embarked on a comprehensive identity program in 1996. A new direction for the
athletics identity was determined, moving away from the politically incorrect Native
American Indian imagery.
Several identities have been used in the past. With the old nickname “Moccasins,”
a snake was used in the 1920s and an Indian was used until the year of major change in
1996. A moccasin shoe was even used in the 1980s.
In 1996, it was decided to adopt the State Bird of Tennessee, the Mockingbird,
as the core of the new identity, while incorporating the strong regional imagery of
Chattanooga’s vast railroad history. The mascot “Scrappy” was born and a new emphasis
was placed on the athletics department’s role in the region.
The committee also recognized the need for the word “Chattanooga” to have a
great emphasis in the logo. The nickname “Moccasins” was shortened to simply “Mocs”.
Thus established, Chattanooga could rebuild its athletics programs and initiatives
around this new identity.
And rebuild it did. Quickly establishing the identity program in February 1997,
combined with tremendous success in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, UTC had
positioned itself to reach for the next level.
From 1997 to 2007, the primary logo was the mascot, Scrappy, riding a train. The
secondary logo features the front of a train with the word Mocs built into the logo. This
logo is affectionately called the “Cowcatcher logo,” referring to the front lower grill of the
train that helped push objects from the train tracks.
In August 2007, officials at Chattanooga updated the school’s marks. A new C logo,
the “Power C” as it has become
known to fans and alums, was
created as the primary mark
and is emblazoned on the side
of the football team’s helmets.
The secondary marks were
updated with a more modern
look, and a new font, unique
to the school, is now used on
the text areas of the logos and
marks.
In September 2008,
Scrappy was re-branded to
better match the image of a
mockingbird and reflect the
rich tradition of our state, our
city and our University. New
marks of the head as well as
a full body were released. The
program has also been taking
special efforts to stay true
to its color palette—which
includes navy blue and old
gold.

SCRAPPY
Named after legendary football coach A.C. “Scrappy” Moore, Scrappy, the
Chattanooga mascot, is a fixture for the Mocs. A re-design in 2008 puts Scrappy in the
image of the State Bird of Tennessee, the Mockingbird. The mockingbird is known as a
fierce protector of its nest and environment. It is sometimes seen swooping down on a
dog, cat or predator that may be venturing too close to the bird’s protected territory. Once
described by “Late Night” host Jimmy Fallon as “a sledge-hammer wielding mockingbird
with a heart of Blue & Gold,” Scrappy symbolizes that competitive passion.

2012-13 MEN’S GOLF

The “Power C” is the primary mark
of the Chattanooga athletics
department. It can be used alone
or with “CHATTANOOGA MOCS”
in the school’s custom-made font
below the C.

Mark Guhne (pronounced JUNE) took the reins of the
CChattanooga Mocs men’s golf team in 2005 and has led his
aalma mater to unprecedented heights in men’s golf. He has
sspearheaded a consistent presence in the national rankings.
His impact is not just felt in one area of the program. The
ssquad has excelled in each aspect of the UTC Athletics Mission
SStatement which is to “guide, encourage and support our
SStudent-Athletes in their quest for comprehensive excellence
- academically, athletically and socially. Above all else, we
pprepare Students for productive and meaningful lives.”
With 16 team and 12 individual wins, a strong academic
aachievement record and a solid presence in the community,
iit’s
t easy to see his commitment to establishing comprehensive
excellence as the UTC standard.

16

ATHLETICALLY
During Guhne’s tenure, the Mocs have been ranked No. 1 in the nation twice and won a NCAA
Regional. Enough said? Not hardly.
In 2012, four different individuals won five events – two collegiate. It included NCAA Regional
and SoCon Championships by Stephan Jaeger and two Scottish summer titles: Tennant Cup (Liam
Johnston) and North East Open (Chris Robb). Oh and Steven Fox captured the United States
Amateur.
Four of Chattanooga’s five Southern Conference Championships have been under his guidance,
winning in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2012. His charges not only swept team and medalist honors at the
2012 SoCon Championship, but they followed it up with an epic sweep at the NCAA Bowling Green
Regional coming from behind to beat the likes of UCLA, Texas A&M, Arkansas and Clemson.
Six of his seven teams have advance to NCAA Regional play. Twice, 2009 and 2012, the Mocs
moved on to compete in the NCAA Championship finishing 18th both times at Inverness in 2009 and
Riviera Country Club in 2012.
He has recruited and helped develop two All-Americans. Jaeger is the most recent, earning first
team honors in 2012, while former teammate Jonathan Hodge made the second team in 2008.
Guhne has mentored five of the last six SoCon Golfers of the Year in Hodge and Jaeger. Hodge
won the award in 2007 and 2008, while Jaeger is the only student-athlete in league history to win
it three times.
Jaeger is the jewel of the Guhne years as the most decorated student-athlete in the program’s
history. He holds virtually every tournament, season and career record of note. His four career wins
along with Hodge (3) rank 1-2 among the all-time leaders.
But the program was not built on just two student-athletes. Six different golfers have wins
under Guhne, accounting for 12 overall. The team’s 16 overall wins include five postseason. The big
regular season victory came just down the road at The Farm in Rocky Face, Ga., as Guhne’s Mocs won
the prestigious Carpet Capital Collegiate Classic, in 2008.
That win spurred the first No. 1 ranking in school history. The second came a year later in 2009.
The top final team ranking is No. 12 (Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index) in 2008 with another
top 25 in 2009 (No. 25). The 2012 team just missed out, ending up No. 27 on Golfstat.
That 2007-08 team had a remarkable year in earning the No. 12 final ranking. It won a
program-record five times with three medalist honors by Hodge, another school record later tied by
Jaeger in 2012.
Guhne has four SoCon Coach of the Year awards - 2006, 2007, 2008, 2012 - in his seven seasons
with the top ranked team in the league over the last six. He was also named 2009 Eaton/Golf Pride
East Region Coach of the Year.
He’s had 10 PING All-East Region selections highlighted by Jaeger’s four appearances and Derek
Rende’s three. Those two are four-time All-SoCon selections which accounts for eight of Guhne’s 19
all-league members.
The 2011-12 team will be long remembered for the postseason title run as well as the
remarkable effort by Jaeger. His three wins tied Hodge’s season record and his 22-under par total for
the season led to first team All-American honors.
Fox offered on of the top highlights of the campaign. His second round 64 (-8) set the course
record at the Club at Olde Stone at the Bowling Green Regional.
Jaeger became the first Mocs golfer since Donnie Green in 1978 to win the SoCon

Guhne with 2012 U.S. Amateur Champion Steven Fox

Championship and did so by tying Brad Faxon’s (Furman) record for margin of victory (11 shots). He
also set the school 54-hole record shooting 13-under par 203 in winning the NCAA Bowling Green
Regional.
Guhne’s had several individuals ranked among the nation’s leaders year-in and year-out. Jaeger
ended the 2012 season ranked No. 12 in the Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index which is another
program best for the German.
Hodge’s No. 26 in 2008 is second to Jaeger, but it is also the only time the Mocs have had three
top 100 performers in the same season. Rende (74) and Fredrik Qvicker (88) joined Hodge as the
squad boasted four All-Southern Conference performers with that trio and Ben Rickett.
Guhne’s 2010-11 squad showcased his ability to continue moving the program forward. His
No. 1-ranked squads did so with a remarkably similar roster. This one followed those years with just
one junior (Jaeger) and a sophomore (Fox) to go with three freshmen in the lineup.
That group had the fewest losses in Guhne’s six seasons with just 41 in 11 events. The young
squad had many memorable moments. They knocked off three top 15 programs in national runnerup Georgia, Stanford and Iowa in a week’s time finishing second at the Linger Longer and LSU
National Invites to Alabama and LSU, respectively.
As part of the growth of the student-athlete, Guhne encourages aggressive summer
tournament schedules. During his tenure, five players have qualified for the U.S. Amateur, three in
2007 in Hodge, Rende and Bryce Ledford. Jaeger qualified in 2011 and Fox won it in 2012.
Qvicker finished as low amateur at the 2007 Scandanavian Masters, while Rickett qualified for
the 2007 English Amateur, finishing in the final 16, and the 2008 British and English Ams. Rickett,
Qvicker and Jaeger all advanced to match play at the Amateur together in 2009.
Rende won the 2007 Tennessee State Open and then followed in 2008 with a win at the
Tennessee State Amateur. Hodge qualified for the Western Refining All-American in 2008 and
played a phenomenal summer schedule which included a third-round finish at the North/South
Amateur. Jaeger was a wild-card entry in the 2011 BMW International Open on the European Tour.
Fox won the 2011 Tennessee Match Play Championship. He made a run at the 2009 Tennessee
Open title finishing tied for second to Ledford and was a semi-finalist at the 2010 Match Play
Championship. He and incoming freshman Kory Webb won their qualifiers for the 2012 U.S.
Amateur Public Links Championship.
ACADEMICALLY
Chattanooga’s men’s golf team takes the term student-athlete to heart. The team yearly posts
one of the athletic department’s top team GPA’s and in 2012 received national notice.
The squad achieved a perfect multi-year APR score of 1,000 for the period 2008-11. It became
the first program in UTC history to attain the mark over a four-year period.
While maintaining eligibility and graduating is important in athletics, the Mocs have excelled
in the classroom. Every student-athlete that Guhne has brought to Chattanooga and completed
eligibility has graduated.
During the 2008-11 time period, the Mocs had two All-America scholars in Jaeger and Rende
along with multiple Academic All-SoCon, Dean’s List and Athletic Director’s Honor Roll mentions.
The team’s commitment to the classroom mirrors its play on the course.

Four Mocs earned Dean’s List mention
((Jaeger,
J
Robb, Davis Bunn, Alex Ratliff )
aand another two joined the quartet on the
AAthletic Director’s Honor Roll in 2011-12.
TThat’s

pplaying rounds on regular basis with the
CC.H.I.P.S. golfers. The team also hosted a golf
sskills
k open house for the group prior to the
22011 NCAA Colorado Regional at the Player
DDevelopment Complex.
In 2012, Jaeger coordinated the
tteam’s
e
efforts making certain there was an
aactive
c presence at C.H.I.P.S. events. It is just

another example of how Guhne continues his efforts in establishing comprehensive excellence as
the Mocs standard.
Guhne was elevated to the head coaching position on March 1, 2005, after three seasons
serving as assistant coach to Reed Sanderlin. A PGA professional, Guhne has earned Class A status
and was the 2007 Horton Smith Award winner. He was elected president of the Chattanooga
chapter of the PGA in 2008.
Among his playing accomplishments, Guhne was selected to the 2007 Tennessee Challenge
Cup team. In 2003 and 2004, he represented Tennessee in the Tennessee vs. Georgia PGA Cup
Matches.
Mark and his wife Kelly are both Chattanooga graduates with each earning degrees in 1984.
The couple resides in Hixson, Tenn. He is an avid fisherman in his spare time.

Ben Rickett, Assistant Coach
Ben was named full-time assistant with the men’s golf
program in May of 2010 after serving one year as a student
assistant while finishing his degree in psychology. He assists
head coach Mark Guhne in all aspects of managing the program
including recruiting, equipment purchasing, practice and oncourse coaching.
His greatest claim to fame came at the 2012 United States
Amateur final. With Steven Fox two down through 18 holes,
Rickett took over the bag as caddie. Fox ended up leveling the
match on the final hole after being two down and dormie with
two to play. He won the match on the 37th hole crediting his
caddie’s stellar work.
Rickett was a four-year letterwinner for the Mocs playing 116 rounds in his four seasons
averaging 73.66 strokes per rounds. His best year came as a senior in 2008-09 where he led the
team ranking No. 107 in the Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index.
That year, Rickett posted a team-best four top 10 finishes and eight top 20. He earned PING
All-East Region honors along with his second All-SoCon honor. His best finish was tied for second at
the Aldila Scenic City Invitational shooting 205 (-11). Most impressive finish was tying for eighth at
the PING Golfweek Preview (212, -1).
Ben carded 16 rounds in the 60s for his career, 39 par or better with 10 top 10s. He tied for
second twice at the Aldila Scenic City Invitational in 2007 and 2008 with his 2007 result of 11-under
par 205 serving as his career best. His low of 66 came at the 2007 Scenic City. He counted in 60 of
his final 68 team rounds.
A native of Surrey, England, Rickett is a former top 100 in the world as an amateur. He made
match play at the 2009 British Amateur as well as several English Amateurs reaching the round of
16 in 2006.
He is married to the former Shelley Taylor, who was a track standout for the Mocs.

The 2012-13 Chattanooga
Mocs men’s golf team looks to
maintain the momentum built at
the end of the 2011-12 season.
UTC swept team and individual
titles at the Southern Conference
Championship and NCAA Bowling
Green Regional.
The team ran away with the
SoCon crown by 19 shots. It then
came from behind to best Texas

States Amateur title in August.
“It’s always tough when you
lose a player like Jaeger,” said head coach Mark Guhne of the young man who set virtually
every school record during his career. “Of course we have a pretty good one coming back
to build around.”
Guhne is referring to the young man who built on the program’s momentum ending
the 2012 season. That’s Steven Fox, 2012 United States Amateur Champion. Possibly the
single greatest feat in UTC athletics history.
“I could not be happier for, nor prouder of Steven,” Guhne added. “He had a magical
week but it is something he built toward over his three years here.”
Junior Chris Robb (Aberdeenshire, Scotland) and sophomore Liam Johnston
(Dumfries, Scotland) each started both the SoCon, where Robb was runner-up, and NCAA
events. Juniors Benni Weilguni (Lagenlois, Austria) and Davis Bunn also saw postseason
action with Weilguni getting the nod at the SoCon Championship and Bunn stepping in
for the NCAA run.
Senior Alex Ratliff (Kingsport, Tenn.) returns for his final season. Guhne also
welcomes a trio of talented freshmen - Wes Gosselin (Knoxville, Tenn.), Michael Monroe
(Franklin, Tenn.) and Kory Webb (Knoxville, Tenn.).

top winning the Carpet Capital. Plus our families, friends and fans can easily come out and
join us over the weekend.”
The Carpet Capital is played at the Farm in Rocky Face (Dalton), Ga. It is a 30mile drive from downtown Chattanooga affording golf fans in the area an excellent
opportunity to see this year’s team open the season.
It doesn’t get any easier for the Mocs. The PING/Golfweek Preview is the following
week at the Capital City Club Crabapple Course outside Atlanta. That’s the host site for
the NCAA Championship in the spring. Another star-studded 15-team field awaits with
Texas, Alabama, Cal, UCLA, Washington, Georgia and Georgia Tech among those awaiting
Chattanooga. In fact, seven of the eight teams that earned match play in the 2012
championship are in the tourney.
Next are two familiar events for UTC. The team travels to the Brickyard Collegiate Oct.
5-7 in Macon, Ga., and the AutoTrader.com Collegiate Classic Oct. 15-16 in Duluth, Ga. It
concludes the fall at the Bridgestone Golf Collegiate Oct. 27-28 in Greensboro, N.C.
“It is a very aggressive fall schedule,” Guhne continued. “We see the defending
national champion (Texas) twice and keep coming across Alabama, the runner-up last
year. But it shows how far along our program has come and where it is headed.”
The spring opens in Texas for the Redstone Collegiate Championship in the Houston
suburb of Humble, Texas. The event is Feb. 22-24 at Redstone Golf Club.
Chattanooga returns to action in March at the Auburn Tiger Shootout March 11-12 on
the Grand National Lake Course
in Auburn. The Mocs return

The Mocs defend their SoCon Championship April 21-23 at the Ralston Creek
Course in Daniel Island, S.C. NCAA Regionals, another title defense, are May 16-18 at
the following sites: Baton Rouge, La. (University Club), Columbus, Ohio (Scarlet Course),
Fayetteville, Ark. (The Blessings G.C.), Pullman, Wash. (Palouse Ridge G.C.), Tallahassee,
Fla. (Golden Eagle C.C.) and Tempe, Ariz. (Karsten G.C.).
The NCAA Championship is May 28-June 2 at Capital City Club Crabapple Course.
Alpharetta, Ga., will welcome 30 teams and six individuals for 54 holes of stroke play
crowning an individual medalist. The top eight teams at that point move on the three
days of match play to decide the 2013 Champion.
“Our eyes are always on winning the SoCon Championship and grabbing a coveted
top five spot in regionals to make it to the finals,” he concluded. “From there, we are trying
to break down that wall and make match play.
“This year’s as good as any to do that.”

• Individually, the Mocs had three All-Americans, two SoCon
Athletes of the Year, seven SoCon Champions, three SoCon
Freshmen of the Year and one SoCon Coach of the Year.
Chattanooga also brought home 36 All-SoCon honors, while
18 student-athletes made various SoCon All-Freshmen
teams.
• Chattanooga also boasts the reigning Unites States
Amateur Champion Steven Fox. He captured the coveted
title defeating Michael Weaver in 37 holes.

SOCIALLY
• The Mocs volunteered at numerous community events
throughout the year, including National Volunteer Week,
Special Olympics, Read Across America and many more.
• The Mocs looked to expand their presence in the
surrounding areas with Caravan trips to Atlanta and
Nashville. Not to forget their closest fans, the studentathletes again took part in Operation Move-In, helping
freshmen unload into their dorms to begin the fall semester.
• Being engaged in the community can extend past
volunteering. The Mocs created a stir with a number of
creative marketing ideas, including the Go Blue Be Gold
football game against Jacksonville State , the Black Out
men’s basketball game against UNCG, Phillip D. Glass
donning a football helmet for the second year in a row and
having the No. 2 rated football media guide in the nation.

The Southern Conference, which begins its 92nd season of intercollegiate competition in 2011, is a national leader
in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and defining the league’s role in helping to build lifelong
leaders and role models.
The SoCon is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the
Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacific 10 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of
origination.
Academic excellence has been a major part of the SoCon’s tradition. League athletes have been recognized countless
times on Verizon/CoSIDA Academic All-America and district teams. A total of 19 Rhodes Scholarship winners have
been selected from conference institutions.
The SoCon has sent three schools to regionals in three of the last six years with the Mocs leading the charge in 2009,
2010 and 2011 and with multiple individual berths including Emma de Groot in 2008. A SoCon school has qualified
for the NCAA Championship four times since the turn of the century with the Mocs being the most recent entry in
2009.
The Southern Conference office is located in the historic Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, S.C. A textile mill that was in
operation from 1880 until 1999, the Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the SoCon a first-class
meeting area and offices as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents.
